Transvaginal Mesh Surgery for Pelvic Organ Prolapse: One-Year Outcome Analysis

Abstract Objective: Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is common and has a high incidence of recurrence. Thus, there is a need for procedures that have higher rates of first-time success and attractive safety profiles. The aim of this study was to assess how well the Exair ® (Coloplast, Humlebæk, Denmark) transvaginal mesh system corrected POP. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective analysis of patients who received Exair transvaginal mesh between June 2013 and August 2015 for POP. Patients with uterine prolapse underwent vaginal mesh hysteropexy. A composite score that included subjective criteria of absence of a bothersome bulge, no prolapse below the hymen, and no retreatment was used to assess success. Results: Transvaginal mesh was inserted in 80 patients (age 67 ± 9.2 years; body mass index 28.56 ± 5.18 kg/m 2 ).
